Today is my late boy’s bday. I know he would not have lived to be 18 (today). He was 13 but if it hadn’t been for the mass in his stomach, he would have easily made it to 15–I just know it. His final days were hard because he had been put on medication that made him act young again. The cognitive dissonance of his new energy to the reality of his situation was so hard to accept. 13 years was not enough; I wish pets survived our whole lifetime. My goodest boy, you will forever have my heart. Today I raise a glass to you, to commemorate everything you meant to me and remember the unconditional love you gave me. ❤️

So @nicholas turns 19 roughly this time of year and we are celebrating this weekend. Some @Monroe is #vegan, @steggy and I are making a vegan cake.

The plant-based butter and plant-based egg substitute seem to have worked out really well. The “butter cream” frosting is quite tasty. We added a bit of vanilla to the “butter” and sugar and it’s nice.

The writing icing was a little old. It ran. That’s a shame.

They don’t post enough on mastodon, so I thought I’d tag them so they’d get some traffic and maybe they’ll start posting some here.

The frosted cake. It’s just white coloured frosting.

Happy Birthday William Hamilton Page—born in Tilton, New Hampshire, March 14, 1829. Page lived nearly 40 years of his adult life in Norwich, Conn as a wood type manufacturer. Images shown here from 1878 specimen catalog, slightly repurposed from specimen catalog from 1867. Engraving likely created by Charles Tubbs. More text & images about Page’s life and work at www.woodtyperesearch.com/william-hamilton-page/

#3GoodThings #Today #Birthday

1. Another year around the sun. There have been times in my life when I didn't think that was gonna happen. But I'm here and life is pretty good overall!

2. Went out for a nice dinner despite a thing that happened earlier that made me want to just hide at home.

3. Got two stars in the Nether Realm museum of Two Point Museum. Been working on that one for a While.
